BARCELONA are reportedly set to ditch their iconic yellow-and-red ‘Senyera’ fourth kit.

That’s after wearing the fan-favourite jersey for an incredible four years.

First introduced in 2019, the diagonal-striped top was only intended to be worn by Barcelona players for a single season.

But it quickly became a smash hit amongst supporters, who snapped it up in droves.

The shirt’s success, despite being Barca’s fourth choice, was then kept on in 2020, 2021 and 2022.

It was last worn in May when Barca thumped rivals Real Madrid 4-0 at the Bernabeu.

But Footy Headlines claims a new fourth kit is on its way to the Nou Camp.

With Rakuten no longer Barcelona’s shirt sponsors, Spotify will get their very own version of the ’Senyera’ shirt.

Keeping the same red-and-yellow design, it gets rid of the diagonal slashes for a neater horizontal look across the chest.

Barcelona’s iconic club badge will also move from the left to the centre of the top.

And the Nike badge disappears entirely from the front of the shirt, instead featuring as a large print design on the arms.

It remains to be seen when the new fourth kit makes its debut for Barcelona.

However, Footy Headlines anticipates that the shirt could be seen on stars including Gavi and Pedri as soon as this month.

Barcelona boss Xavi hopes the new jersey can inspire his side to glory in LaLiga.

The Catalans are tied at the top with Real on 38 points and are dreaming of a first title win since 2019.
